Personally i was born in the part of the world that we can call Denmark. It's quite a small place with a big collective ego nontheless. Even though i was born here, i'm not part of society and the collective in that sense. I'm not into politics in the sense that any ideology and any world view is an abstraction from reality, acting like a filter. The filter of denmark, political party + education etc. I've decided to not carry those, and so i cannot feel proud of the country in which i was born. To me, the whole world is one, people live different places, have different mind structures and different ways of life, but we're all people nontheless. I cannot feel proud of anything any country has done, usually national pride relates to what the nation achieved in terms of worldly reckognition and how well they did in wars, politics etc. Since i disassociate myself from anything thereof, i cannot say i'm proud of the country, or anything in particular. I'm just happy to be alive.
